Statement I: Two solid cylindrical rods of identical size and different thermal conductivity K_1 and K_2 are connected in series. Then the equivalent thermal conductivity of two rods system is less than that value of thermal conductivity of either rod. Statement II: For two cylindrical rods of identical size and different thermal conductivity K_1 and K_2 connected in series, the equivalent thermal conductivity K is given by (2)/(K)=(1)/(K_1)+(1)/(K_2)
